Can someone give some input on this wheel please?

<center><img src="http://www.discounttiredirect.com/sebring/dtcweb/image/wheel/mimbro.large.jpg"></center><p>It's a MIM Brock B3. It's a copy of the BBS RK, but cheaper. Is it a POS, or at least as good as a $190 wheel could be? Its a 17x8 at that price. I don't know how much it weighs, it may be heavy. Any input would be great. TIA

I'm afraid to go with 18's on Boston roads, I'm too good at hitting potholes :-(
